there must be different variations of this bird...we have magpie's here in FL but they don't look like this...they are quite brown and "dull as a magpie" excellent detail

What a pretty setting, and the iridescence is lovely.

The focus seems to be just a little soft. I think you could have gotten away with a bit more of a saturation boost on your greens and this would have been even better received. I love the BG bokeh.

Nice shot of a very common bird, but apparently under appreciated bird. This shot really captures that hard to shoot iridescence of the flight feathers.
